flying camel spin

[rascalflattsbigfan]

we just had one end of the season skating show saddly but we skated the openning line to eye of the tiger!! awesome that u had it! but anyways, my question was: it looked like u did a regular forward camel for like half a second, why? i thought camels were always forward but then u changed to backwards camel. also, why did u go in with a 3 turn? i've always crossovers, crossovers, crossovers. the only exeption is sometimes going into a quick scratch spin

[321iceskater]

Why do you always go into your spin from a threeturn?

[MegaCupcakesRule]

@321iceskater the three turn helps hook it or pull it into one spot so that you don't go all crazy trying to control it and get hurt. It helps control it, if you don't have a good three turn you won't have a good spin because the three actually helps start it. when I used to skate my coach heavily emphasized the three and its role in spinning.

[kaylajoon1]

any advice i have a competition tommorow!!!!!!

[songaji1]

@kaylajoon1 omg i have a competition tommorow too

[xskater4evax]

wow, how do you change edge in a back camel, Im learning it and i find it so so hard!

[duckiesmayrule]

What type of skates do you have?

[CheekyChickengeek123]

amazin. i cant get the spin angle right on my left foot :L

[ImmaculateRecovery]

lovely back camel

[jordandodds1]

LEVEL 1.... u didnt hold the positions for long enough

[imrandomjen]

i have been sk8ing for 8 years and im only 12. i can do camel-change-camel, flying sit, axel, (working on double salch), layback cannondall, broken leg, and MORE. but i just cant get that flying camel!

[NCFigureSkater13]

@imrandomjen you know your just making yourself sound arrogant and rude right?? stop gloating and give constructive criticism and congrats or dont comment at all

[imrandomjen]

@NCFigureSkater13 well i gave a compliment, "i just cant get the flying camel spin", this video helped me on how to do the spin. its a COMMENT. my god. i never ment it in a bragging-like manner, YOU just thought i meant it like that. i am who i am. plus im freakin 12! dont have to be so mean

[horsechic251]

great job! maybe you could straighten ur flying leg a bit... i used to hav that problem too... it took FOREVR to fix

[Iceskatergirl22]

good jiob! haha this was a combo spin in my routine! i always messed up the flying camel part! i hated that spin! (not yours!)

[judge205]

amazing

[PopoThe99]

i can do that , but i still must to study again

[SUKEBEBOZU]

Great !!

[giantaxel]

Amazing! I'm still trying to get speed on this spin... any suggestions?

[SophaayBabeey]

Amaziing  <3

[haruhiotakufan16]

not bad your leg was alittle bend but so far so good

[DavidArchie7399885]

are you spinning on your right leg? i really want to learn how to do this but im a lefty . so you go into it like a back spin or like a salchow and flip onto your skating leg?

[skaterlover247]

wow this is really good! great speed. and your leg is a bit bent, but it is still very pretty. well done! :)

[donnalady1982]

lol the bit at 0:19 when she looks down at the ice after her spin..... us skaters know what she was looking at/for! I do it every time! Lush spin though x

[abharo11]

@donnalady1982 Oh, hahaha!, you're right!, i ice-skate, and after i saw your comment it took me 5 seconds to guess.I do that, too. :P

[SkateLover151]

@donnalady1982 i do too! and sometimes when i'm really proud of my spin, i just stay in that spot and stare at it. I probably look like an idiot in the middle of the ice, but i don't care, it makes me feel really really really happy!

[mycupcake123]

wow

very good

[skatebride9205]

You have a great jump and get's good speed with it!!!

[Skateclark]

Ew your leg is really bent, stretch

[lucy980511]

[figuresk83108]

This is my favorite jump, good job :)

[glamourgirl421]

its a spin

[figuresk83108]

Lol i mean spin :P

[lucylikeslollies]

is it just me or is she spinning to the left on her right leg? coz i thought you couldnt do that. some reason i thought it was impossible. :s

[shamelessfangirl91]

It's called a back spin... it's the basis to like, everything...

[glamourgirl421]

i can almost do one of those

[elliechannel]

great job =]

i'm sure you already know but you should stretch your free leg more in your first position

[giantaxel]

Really, really good!

[xxbedheadxx5]

[carterkwast]

[callumleach]

wew immense change edge?tippps?x

[evilchicken323]

i like the music playing in the background! :L :D

[evangeline97]

I love the spin !if you actually look at it and think that it is easy and when you try it you would fall for a lot of times ! Like me ... HAHA I thought Spirals were so easy and when i try it , It was hard for me

[cakelover888]

Really good.

[sammywright07]

yeah ignore some of the people leaving idiotic comments after all you did say "with some features" and going onto an inside edge makes the spin harder, with would qualify it to be called a feature.bet they cant do any of that to save their lives. it was really good, your catchfoot was really nice

[luchito345]

cant believe how many people r saying u did a bad job b/c of going in the inside edgde when that actually means u r doing higher level spins, they r soooooooooo wrong, u did a great job (only one advice, when u catch ur foot, try not to bend down ur knee, cuz in a competition that wouldprevent u from getting a higher level spin, b/c the basics of the camel position is tha the knee has to be higher than ur hip... but still such a great job!!!)

[ColleenxxMichelle]

this is really good, forget about what every one else is saying. you have a good streth on your beilmen too! keep it up!

[mac9596]

no no no all wrong spin on the ball of ur foot!!!

[luchito345]

she actually did a great job, she changed of edge in the spin, making it more difficult (it's harder to do a back spin in ur inside edgde)

[Savskates377]

very nice

[evilchicken323]

Your leg is a tiny bit bent =[

[4NT0NYB]

wow that pretty good

[JesusLovesSk8rs2]

no offense but u should work on trying to swing ur leg higher to make the spin bigger and more intresting

[ccfcrule223]

u spin on the ball of ur foot

[figureskater717]

she is spinning on the ball of her foot she just when to the middle of her blade to change the edge and make a variation.

[icebabbywfsc12]

Wow what a great flying camel!!!!!

[bbyiceyxxx]

u r gud...nice spin. But y do ppl spin on thier heel then the ball of the foot??

[emma1713]

your good, this vidoe is in my favourites i like it that much

[HiImKdXD]

wow, this is soo good, im learning mine now and its hard and mine keeps looking like a salchow lol, any tips?

[tinymavy]

[jimmyisherenow]
